RIGHT on TIME!,
By
This review is from: That's Right (Audio CD)
George Benson's 1996 release presents a great blend of the artist's vocal and instrumental wizardry. Four of the selections allow the singer to flourish while the remaining six affirm Benson's talent on the guitar. With the exception of the somewhat derivative "Song for My Brother", the songs are beautiful, urban, haunting, and inspirational. One of the highlights, "Summer Love", sounds as if it may have been a leftover from Benson's masterful 1980 release "Give Me the Night". A deft mixture of lilting melody and background vocals, simple instrumentation, and a subtle bass line, the song, like many others on the album, allows Benson to vocally his OWN guitar rifts, one of his trademarks. And "P. Park" is a funky, little ditty that is a throwback to a time when REAL music ruled, not the synthesized, computerized, electronically enhanced tripe of today. .

That's right; 5 stars,

This review is from: That's Right (Audio CD)
Not much to say about this album except that "that's Right" ranks among the best albums released by George Benson from the early 80's until today.
Classic in every beat and sound; voice and guitar, funk to soul to Jazz; all there. This is one of his best. George Benson. Great stuff

A timeless album,
By Finch (Los Angeles. CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: That's Right (Audio CD)
George has been a favorite artist of mine since I was a kid. I saw him once at a free concert he gave at Stern Grove in the late 90's - it was outstanding and he's a truly soulful performer. This album ranks among his better and came out a little before the live performance noted above.
George knows how to blend his superb instrumental and vocal abilities in the right ratios here to produce a truly listenable album from back to front. My favorite pastime is to cruise along Mulholland or PCH, with the sun on my back admiring the view and Mr Benson drifting through my car stereo. It may sound like a stretch - though George can actually make an LA car commute a pleasure ; )
